Because Tottenham have been established as one of the PL's 'elite' clubs for some time now. Because they have a commercial department that is more than a few years old. Their previous deal with Aurasma was worth £10m a season, and the monster deal signed with AIA back in 2019 just after they finished as CL runner up, moved into their brand spanking new stadium, had one of the most highly regarded managers in world football, etc.

And when does the shit yourself stage happen?

I think you underestimate the difficulty of the task at hand. Previously, clubs who had suddenly become cash rich could sign whatever deal they like with whomever they like, without giving a shit about appearing fair or not. Pre-FFP/PSR Newcastle would be sponsored by Aramco for £100m a season, or some such bollocks. We're not in Europe, we're not going to immediately be challenging for titles or trophies (even if we were allowed to spend what we could afford).

Ewerk taking the London Underground approach there. See it, say it, sorted. -

Merson and Redknapp are exactly the type of cunts who would be berating someone for launching the ball into Row Z time and time again when there are better options. We had a few goes from distance against Wolves, do these two stalactites think this was by chance? or do you think the coaching staff identified this as being one of those games where given we're not getting round the back as much, we're better off having a dig and following up? Genuinely think I could have had a remarkable punditry career if only I'd played 20+ games for Spurs or Liverpool in the late 90s and then moved to Fulham. -
I thought Teslas had 12" screens? Now, Irishmen might be built different, but I always thought 12" was pretty big?

re-watching Match of the Day from last night. Theo Walcott's not bad to be fair. But Danny Rose... is he drunk? did he know he was going to be on tv? Same vibes. -

Not a good omen.

Doesn't that drain the battery as you're charging?

Pretty pleasantly surprised. After my second batch of Paternity Leave I get 6 months working 80% of my hours for 100% pay and benefits, so I'm going to be taking every Monday off April-September. So I give my boss the dates and she asks if I know if I get the Bank Holidays as days in lieu. I say "that's not policy, no". She says that's not right, so changes the dates and sends it off. Her boss signs it off immediately. I effectively get another month of Mondays off. Is it because she wants to keep a valued member of the team happy, or is it because I'm entirely worthless? Either way I get a month or monday's off.

It's all bullshit. You work for some wealthy people, so they can get more wealth by doing nothing. Then they give you the tiniest fraction of their wealth, so you can spend it on things to make your life more enjoyable, and in so doing feather the nests of other wealthy people who get more money for doing nothing. With the level of automation we're capable of, we should all be having days of leisure where essentials cost fuck all and 'luxuries' are common place. But greed is a mother fucker.

How fucking far down did you have to scroll to find her?

Like babies because they're incapable of giving a shit. Wasn't there some study where High levels execs were almost indistinguishable from psychopaths?

I only occasionally find myself listening to Nevermind and In Utero but when I do I like them. I don't get the adulation for them, and I don't rate their other albums, but as things to dip your feet in, they're both a good listen and two albums that I'll rarely skip a track on.

Another drawback of vape; muscle memory means that when I had a joint I pulled on it like it was a vape and almost immediately whitied.
